While I'm sure John's idea will work, Just one quick question? Do you per chance hav a wait window come up in the load or init of the form? If you do that wait window gets the focus and not then main window. Just an idea...

>Hi,
> I have written an application in VFP 5.0 - the problem I'm encountering is when starting the program. Most (all) windows programs start up with focus. My application, however, starts up but does not have focus - you need to click the mouse in the window. How do I fix this?
